Ok well some day I will have to head down there. I'm planning on DBBB this year by the way scheduled off and everything. I just have to remember the registration stuff. Oh to get back on track beautiful location so much better than Padre Island. 100 to 130 feet of beach and only about 20 to 30 feet of hard pack. yours is like 2 or 3 times that and all hard pack. I can't wait.

Tide is supposed to be about a foot low friday morning with south winds near 16mph is the forecast with temps around 65-70. Buggy time...



EDIT:
Friday

Mostly cloudy until late afternoon then becoming partly cloudy. Areas of fog early in the morning...then patchy fog in the morning. Highs in the mid 70s inland...in the lower 70s coast. South winds 10 to 20 mph


Wowza.... they improved the forecast for SLP :)
